  1. Yay, thank you!!! If I calculated right that gives me $40, which I'm gonna need it with the size order I'm about to place... Hadn't ordered in a couple months so I've got to make up for it!
  2. Have I ever redeemed ANY posting credits? I don't remember...
  3. OK, I narrowed down from "everything" to: DHEAS LAM - can't decide which scent though; I thought there was a sampler set option of this? Monthly sampler of May releases
  4. This is beautiful! I came here to review and look to buy it, just to see in the first post in this thread that it's gone. Did any of the rest of you think this is close to the latest 'Spider Silk' brew?
  5. QG, have you tried "Shark Whisperer"? I love it but I do wear it to work for the phero. Very salt waterish. I layered it with "Bonnie" the other day to get the feel of salty marine air wafting over Scottish highlands. ETA: corrected "Shark Whisperer". I had the name of the phero there when I meant the name of the fragrance that contains the phero.
  6. I haven't bought an entire sampler since February but I'm buying this one. Maybe "Ectoplasm" and "4th Dimension" will scratch my itch for creepy Halloween scents right now!
  7. OK, so when do we get descriptions!!! I think these are my favorite labels yet this year...

    Bonnie

    I finally found my original bottle to compare to this. The original has more of a hay scent, and it goes through a phase (on my skin, at least) of kind of a dill scent. Really sharply green, but that could also be a component of the hay notes. The new brew is softer and sweeter, and almost cotton candy sweet when compared side by side to the original. It is a really sweet, soft foral with that rare heather note that I love.
  9. I found the thread about it: http://lovepotion.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=6287&hl=skye%26%2339%3Bs&fromsearch=1
  10. This smelled fantastic, and I think Skye had a PE that smelled a lot like this but now I can't remember the name of the PE! ETA: Doh! After I posted I read above and saw where she had been working on it. It was definitely done but I can't remember the name.
  11. I never got this because I didn't want all fruit and melons; I like the seaweed, bladderwrack, kelpy notes that this one doesn't seem to have. But from reading your descriptions, this one might smell a lot like the Australian Gold spray gels I buy at the drugstore or Wal-Mart. So if any of you have any Australian Gold products and you have Tail, you might want to compare to see if you could use the Australian Gold gels or lotions as a general body lotion with Tail on top. I buy them for the SPF
  12. This is one of my faves too, QG. I lost count of how many sample vials of this I have stashed around in so many places (home, purses, office...) because it's something you can grab if you can't decide on a scent. It's always great and is appropriate for anywhere.
  13. I love this one too, and I'm not a huge fan of florals. I'm very picky about them and this is one of the very few that I care anything for. We need it's opposite: a deep, dark, heavy funeral flowers scent.
  14. Nothing yet? Aaaaaugh And how can you lot be thinking about romance when there's new LPs afoot!
  15. I started to comment that hopefully there's a new Beltane scent coming, and then I realized it'll be AFTER Beltane before the scents are released! At least I have two bottles of the first one.
  16. This scent sounds heavenly, but I have no need for the phero that's in it. I'll have to miss out on this one.
  17. I got cinnamon first. I'm trying to test things without going back and looking at the ingredients to see what my reaction is sans that prompting, and I got spiciness first. It feels like a very warm, Autumn type of scent. I get tobacco later on, some cake scent, and a little fruitiness. All in that order. After dry-down the tobacco and smokiness seem the strongest part of it.

    Always A Lady

    This one starts out watery and fresh; it almost is aquatic and reminded me of "Mermaids of Atlantis". Later the florals come more forward, and I can pick out rose but it's not overbearing. This is a classy floral that makes me think "old Hollywood" for some reason.
  19. When I sniffed February scents, the same word kept coming to mind, scent after scent: cheerful. The same thing is happening with March releases, and that one word is "clean". Every one so far has a really clean aura to it. These are fabulous.
  20. What she said!!!! Baby Chicks!!! Wicked!!! BONNIE!!!
  21. I love cherry scents so this is right up my alley. It is yummy sweet cherry syrup at first, then vanilla, and then the other ingredients make their entrance. I'm wondering what other fruity scents I can layer it with to make some interesting variants.
  22. I did get this. Love it, but not for an everyday perfume when you'll be around other people. I might enjoy this around home just for me, or as has been stated for its intent in a spell. Mara's description is spot on, and because I've dabbled in making magical oils from various essential oils and am familiar with the nuances of scent I'm OK that this doesn't appeal to the masses.
  23. An Irish cream liquer scent would be da bomb. And I'm always up for fresh, green clover scents.
